innocence

We now learn that matter in the universe is aligned
in a grid,
that each molecule knows its mark
as if order came first
that the stars know the moment of our birth
as if knowledge came first
that each canvas knows what it wants to become as if image came first

that the tiger knows when to strike
as if power came first
that prayer is answered
as if God came first

and as all systems fail
all gods flee
all stars fall
and as knowledge is overrun by innocence

something else comes into being

Prepare.
